“You old Army puke, get better soon so I can have someone to pick on,” Ty said to the unresponsive form of Raytak in the medpod. His son stayed quiet while he spent time with his friend. Ty had only been out of the medpod for a short time and missed his only living friend.

“You ready to wheel me out, son? I think I’m about ready to head home.”

“Sure, pops. You still want to drive by the site of the new restaurant?” Nathan asked. Ty nodded as they wheeled out. He was glad to see his son had carried on with the restaurant. Ty had only known war during his time in the Corps, and finding a love for cooking later in life had been a blessing. His mother’s old recipes were a hit, and the Heapin’ Helpin’ Restaurant took off.

Before he became sick, Ty had opened a second location that Nathan started to run, following in his father’s footsteps. The trouble was that his grandson Lamar didn’t want to open a restaurant; instead, he wanted to become a professional gamer. Nathan was having none of it, and the two were butting heads regularly. Ty loved them both and hoped they could work it out between them; if not, he wasn’t opposed to knocking some sense into the two of them.

Ty looked out the window as they passed the corner that Nathan wanted to open the tenth location on. The spot was good, near an interstate offramp and between a business district and a residential district. The restaurant still served the same menu that Ty had started all those years ago. They specialized in home-cooking dishes that everyone could appreciate . . . except for the stuck-up food critics.

“That spot’s a winner, son. You know how to pick ’em,” Ty said.

“Learned from the best, pops. Learned from the best,” Nathan said as they drove home. Ty was staying with his son’s family. He and his wife stayed in a small guest house on a property that they had to themselves, but they were also only a few steps from the others. It was a surprisingly difficult adjustment to live around people again, almost like coming home after a deployment in the Marines. He rarely spoke with Lamar, who usually shut himself in his room, playing games. After being essentially trapped in one recently, Ty was happy with the real world.

Though he didn’t really want to insert himself in their business, Ty felt a need to reach out to Lamar and get his side of the story. Nathan was intense at times—a trait he inherited from his father, no doubt—and seemed to have a hard time reaching his son.

Nathan helped him out of the car, Ty choosing to use his cane instead of the wheelchair this close to home. He took his time, slowly making his way up the walkway. It ground away at him that he lacked the strength to do things himself. Needing help from others wasn’t how he had lived most of his life.
